Mexican authorities say migrants have been kidnapped from two buses bound for the U.S. border in recent weeks. The migrants disappeared near San Fernando, the site of a notorious mass killing of 72 migrants in 2010.
A truck passes a sign on the Reynosa-San Fernando road in the town of Palos Blancos, in Mexico's Tamaulipas state, on March, 12, 2019. At least 19 men were kidnapped from a bus passing through Palos Blancos en route to the U.S. border last week, officials said. At least 19 men believed to be from Central America were traveling on a bus in northern Mexico last week when masked gunmen stormed aboard, forced the migrants onto pickup trucks, then sped away, Mexican officials said.
The migrants kidnapped last week were traveling on a bus route that traversed the roughly 90 miles from San Fernando to the border city of Reynosa, officials said. Mexican officials have offered different estimates of the number of victims — ranging from 19 to 22 — as well as various theories of possible motives.
